111 Day Artistic Spirit Pledge: Spiritual Growth Through Creative Expression
Day 86: Calling All Artistic Spirits
Do you know someone who’s an artistic spirit?
This blog isn’t just about my experiences and reflections, it’s also an avenue to connect with and support other artistic spirits. So, if you proudly wear that label or know of someone (a writer, sculptor, painter, actor/actress, musician, etc.) who is the epitome of art and spirit, I want to know!
Send me an email at kdeenywriter@yahoo.com with “Artistic Spirit” in the Subject line or tweet me (@kellydwriter).
Hope your new year is off to a great start!
**I am an Artistic Spirit! For most of my life I’ve used the creative arts as a source of spiritual exploration and healing, even though I didn’t always do so consciously. Sometimes I was the instrument creating the art and other times I was on the receiving end. The connection between art and spirituality is so significant in my life that it’s infused into everything I do. I love music, theatre, television drama series (daytime and primetime), and creative writing and find fulfillment in artistic expression of various sorts: singing, acting, and jewelry design. Throughout the next 25 days, I’ll delve into how all of the above strengthens my spirit and has saved my life on more than one occasion.**

Certainly have a creative side makes me feel good when I receive recognition for those things. I can’t say whether or not it’s gotten me through a life challenging time. Mostly I like to write with humor.
Writing with humor is a skill that not every writer masters. It can make others smile in the midst of a trying day or tackle different topics in a non-confrontational manner.
